Across
- 1. this type of plant reduces photorespiration by separating carbon fixation and the calvin cycle in space
- 2. this enzyme site is the region of an enzyme where the substrate binds and the reaction occurs
- 8. the byproduct for this type of fermentation has brewing applications
- 10. inorganic ions that temporarily bind to the enzyme
- 12. this process includes light reactions and the calvin cycle
- 14. this type of energy is from the sun and used in photosynthesis
- 16. the fundamental particle of light and other forms of electromagnetic radiation
- 18. RNA molecules that have catalytic activity, can facilitate chemical reactions
- 21. this enzyme site is a separate binding site apart from the active site, where certain regulators bind to modulate enzyme activity
- 23. the byproduct of this type of fermentation has implications for muscle function
- 24. organic molecules that participate in the reaction but are left unchanged
- 25. these reactions are spontaneous (-ΔG), the reactants have more free energy than products, and energy is released
- 26. this process includes glycolysis, pyruvate breakdown, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation
- 27. this law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed
- 28. the name of this type of plant refers to 3PG (3-Carbon), the first organic molecule made in the calvin cycle
Down
- 1. this type of energy is stored in ATP and is used for various cellular processes
- 2. can create its own food from inorganic substances, “producers”
- 3. losing electrons
- 4. these reactions are not spontaneous (+ΔG), the reactants have less free energy than products, and energy is required
- 5. cannot produce its own food and must rely on other organisms for nutrition, “consumers”
- 6. the sum of all chemical reactions occurring in an organism
- 7. this type of plant reduces photorespiration by separating carbon fixation and the calvin cycle in time
- 9. this is thermal energy generated by cellular processes, which helps to maintain body temperature
- 11. the attachment of a phosphate group to a molecule or an ion
- 13. this law of thermodynamics is related to entropy
- 15. this happens to plants in hot and dry conditions where O2 competes with CO2 for binding with RuBP
- 17. the chemical breakdown of a compound due to reaction with water
- 18. gaining electrons
- 19. the energy of movement, including muscle contractions
- 20. biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions
- 22. this type of energy is seen in moving electrons and nerve impulses
